Electrical Rewiring for Traditional Cottages
Cottages often have features that can make electrical work less straightforward than in newer homes. Solid walls, restricted voids, unusual room shapes and previous alterations can all influence how wiring is accessed and replaced.
Examine the Existing Installation
We look at the accessible electrical system to identify older cables, circuit limitations, damaged accessories and previous alterations that may need attention.
Work With the Building
The property’s construction and available cable routes are considered when determining how the proposed electrical work can be carried out.
Bring the Installation Up to Modern Use
We consider the electricity required for today’s appliances, lighting, sockets and other equipment when developing the new arrangement.
Explain Your Options
Rather than assuming that every cottage requires identical work, we explain what has been identified and what solutions may be appropriate for your property.
